Bpa free sprayable epoxy resin

Abstract

A composition and method for a spray applied BPA free two-part, self-setting composition adapted for delivering the components of the composition at a temperature that promotes their spray application at a proper viscosity as well as inducing a self-setting reaction. Preferably, a self-setting BPA free epoxy coating compound is adapted for curing in place once applied. The self-curing compound includes a multi-part compound which, upon a mixing of the parts, chemically reacts and cures.

1 . A food safe coating composition formed by the steps comprising:
 providing a resin component containing primarily 170 degrees Fahrenheit to 220 degrees Fahrenheit bisphenol F resin composition;   providing a hardener component containing primarily 170 degrees Fahrenheit to 220 degrees Fahrenheit cycloaliphatic amine, said hardener component maintained separately from said resin component, and   mixing said resin component and hardener component immediately prior to application.   
     
     
         2 . The coating composition of  claim 1 , the resin component comprising:
 between 80% and 99% bisphenol F resin by weight;   between 0.05% and 0.02% air release agent by weight; and   between 2% and 6% thixotropic agent by weight.   
     
     
         3 . The coating composition of  claim 2 , the resin component further comprising:
 between 1% and 4% pigment by weight.   
     
     
         4 . The coating composition of  claim 1 , the resin component comprising:
 between 90% and 95% bisphenol F resin by weight;   between 0.02% and 0.03% air release agent by weight,   between 3% and 5% thixotropic agent by weight; and   between 2% and 3% pigment by weight.   
     
     
         5 . The coating composition of  claim 1 , the hardener component comprising:
 between 80% and 99% cycloaliphatic amine by weight;   between 0.05% and 0.02% air release agent by weight; and   between 2% and 6% thixotropic agent by weight.   
     
     
         6 . The coating composition of  claim 1 , the hardener component comprising:
 between 94% and 96% cycloaliphatic amine by weight,   between 0.04% and 0.02% air release agent by weight; and   between 2% and 3% thixotropic agent by weight.
